Gas Notes.


The gas well at Charlottesville is is i, 100 feet
deep. and casing is now being placed in position
before operations will proceed further.
There was an excursion to Noblesville Sat
urday night from Indianapolis, fifteen coaches
taking more than one thousand people to see the
great gas well, among whom were some of the
most prominent citizens of the capital city.
At Greenfield, Saturday night when the drill
ers suspended work, the gas we'll was discharg
ing such a strong flow of gas that arrangements
were made TO light it. and bright flame five to
ten feet high was the result. Trenton rock has
not yet been found.
Well No. 2 mo. l was a failure) at Huntington
has reached depth of $40 feet but the drill has
not yet penetrated Trenton rock On Saturday
morning shale gas came from the orifce. which,
when ignited. gave steady blaze about two
feet high. The drillers who are from Lima o.,
predict either gas or oil, but it will not be Ger
tainly developed before Monday or Tuesday.
The Capital City Gas Company's prospecting
will be continued vigorously when they
began. They will confine the flow of gas from
the Brichtwood well to dag. and will at once be-
gin drilling mile north of there. They

They have derrick in position for drilling

themselves aside from the Belt range;
they are the enter Of a gigantic mineral
belt, in my opinion distinct and separate,
embracing an area CT about 216 square
miles, a small portion of which it might
be said is only yet ~prospected. The i'm
petus which will be given to the develop
ment of the existing mining camps, by
the incoming of railroads the coming years
will undoubtedly form a powerful stimu-
liant to future prospecting and discovery;
when the hidden wealth Of this section will
be duly estimated and appreciated.
Since the time Of Lewis and Clarke
these mountains (than known IS the Black
Mountains) have been noted at times for
loud explosions which have been heard
even as far as Fort Benton. The noise
may possibly have been caused by gases
in the mineral veins seeking an outlet.
Be that as it may there are %oritices in the
Baldies which undoubtedly have been
made by explosions OF gas, or fire from
below, the ore having been thrown hun
dreds of feet outside of the holes. These
are distinctly seen on Big Badly, and will
do doubt in the near future form an in
teresting subject for investigation.

THE END.
Tale of Two OvercOats.

A very promising young lawyer who
lives in an historic town about ten miles
from Boston lately acquired a new and
handsome overcoat, warranted by the
tailor to be of the best English cloth
and particularly durable. He had worn
the new garment scarcely a month,
when one morning, as he came to town
in the train, happening to glance at his
coat-sleeve he perceived with horror
that it was frayed and shabby. Arriv-
ed in Boston he took his way to the
%tailor's in a towering passion, and after
a somewhat troubled discussion there
the seller of the coat, admitting his
liability, refunded half the purchase
money. The next day the wearer OF
the now despised coat received a call
from a friend of his who communicated
the astounding fact that they had un-
consciously changed overcoats and each
had worn the others garment for two
days without discovering the mistake
1t is needless to say that the person
most pleased at the intelligence was the
tailor, whose money and reputation
were at once Decentralization Post.
